Itching to get back on Lake Chelan after the windy day we had last Saturday, and wanting to use some of my new gear i fixed my schedule so i could fish this morning. I followed out the first boat from riverside park, had both lines set and was fishing at 6am. worked water from 100'-230' out in front of blue roof condo's. Went 2 for 4 by 730 am, then couldn't get another bite. went in around noon, talked to a guy at the launch who caught 8 from 730-930, other boats had less than me, with a couple of trout thrown in. Day was a lot nicer than Saturday.

I keep expecting to read a report where they are suddenly jumping in the boats... Every now and again a boat will run through a group and do well but it still seems to be slow for the most part. I hope they start hitting soon. I had such a good time last year catching those fat kokes. Thanks for the report. Hope it picks up soon. (by the way, 4 hits is pretty darn good from what I heard the last two trips)

Talking to the guy that got 8 in 2 hours was encouraging. and yes, 2 for 4 in an hour an a half was fun. I guess they went a little deeper around 730am. I am going to keep trying when I get a chance, hopefully I can get a limit once this year!

It's maddening to get a few bites and hear someone catch 10 fish, makes one wonder what they're doing wrong. Challenging year for (most of) us on Chelan.
